G.A.P. Programming

Gravenhurst Against Poverty focuses on three primary programs:
Picture

Food Program

Working in tandem with our G.A.P. Garden Program and the utilization of generous donations from a growing number of local farmers & organizations, G.A.P. is proud to ​offer a twice-weekly Food Program to support ​those in need from our community. 
Picture

Wellness

Through partnerships with organizations such as the Canadian Mental Health Association, G.A.P. is proud to deliver a wide range of offerings such as the Virtual Speaker Series. 
Picture

Transportation

G.A.P. is proud to partner with local taxi organizations to offer subsidized fares for those in the community faced with barriers around transportation. 

Providing Food to Those Who Need It Most!

Due largely in part to COVID-19 and the global pandemic, G.A.P. has evolved the Supper Program into a Food Program that is delivered to members within the community every Thursday! Additionally, a weekly Meal Pick-Up program has just launched that runs every Monday 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM.
